Come A Little Bit Closer

Sometimes it's extremely essential to take a step back. So that you can see the whole object. And maybe keep going further back so that you can really see the bigger picture.

But sometimes, no matter how important you think keeping the whole object in the picture is, you have to kill your darlings and go closer. Cut something out. And as you go closer, you do loose something, but at the same time you gain in the detail you perhaps didn't see before. Focus.

So come closer. A little more. Come closerrrrrr. Not that much! I'm from Finland so arms length is when you should stop. Get close to your object, not me.

It's important to know what's important. And everything depends on one fact: what do you want to say? What is your message?

Go closer and I'll show you. Compared to the whole very familiar object that I could show you, what do you see? What draws your attention? Where do you look first?

Picture may tell you more than thousand words, but then again, pictures contain only the things the photographer or the artist wants you to see. Again. Focus. If I want you to see hearts, I will show you hearts. <3
